birds in same cage

Comments for birds in same cage

This is not a good idea. Quakers are bigger and can do damage to the smaller birds, and lovebirds are aggressive and will likely encourage the Quaker parrot to need to defend its territory and/or self.

You actually should not even attempt to put another Quaker in with a Quaker or another lovebird in with the lovebirds. Just because they are the same species doesn't even guarantee they will get along. You can still have birds fighting and injuring each other if you do not allow them to spend time outside of their cages and decide they enjoy each other's company. Then, they STILL may not be able to live together.

You can read our "Should I add another Green Cheek Conure" article on our Parrot Training page for more information about this.
